Yeah but I think our esteemed PM was always Al up until he decided he had political ambitions.No, his real first name is Alexander, and his 'friends' call him Al (Insert Paul Simon joke here).
Btw, he isn't the first PM not to use his first name.
Harold Wilsons first name was James.
James Callaghan's is Leonard
Gordon Brown is James too. Really. It is. 'I feel good, doo doo doo doo, I knew that I would.......'
And Enoch Powell's was John.
